General advice : If unconscious place in recovery position and seek medical advice. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If breathing is irregular or
stopped, administer artificial respiration.
Inhalation : Remove from exposure, lie down. Move to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at
rest. Artificial respiration and/or oxygen may be necessary. Consult a
physician.
Skin contact : Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately. Flush area with
lukewarm water. Do not use hot water. If frostbite has occurred, call a
physician.
Eye contact : Hold eyelids apart and flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.

4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Symptoms : Misuse or intentional inhalation abuse may cause death without warning
symptoms, due to cardiac effects., Other symptoms potentially related to
misuse or inhalation abuse are:, Anaesthetic effects, Light-headedness,
dizziness, confusion, incoordination, drowsiness, or unconsciousness, irregular
heartbeat with a strange sensation in the chest, heart thumping, apprehension,
feeling of fainting, dizziness or weakness
: Eye contact may provoke the following symptoms:, Frostbite, Irritation, Tearing,
redness, or discomfort.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Suitable extinguishing media : Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the
surrounding environment.
Specific hazards during : Pressure build-up. Fire or intense heat may cause violent rupture of packages.
firefighting
: Hazardous thermal decomposition products:
: Carbon oxides
: Hydrogen fluoride
: Fluorinated compounds
: Exposure to decomposition products may be a hazard to health.
Special protective equipment : In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Use personal
for firefighters protective equipment. Wear neoprene gloves during cleaning up work after a
fire.
Personal precautions : Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Ventilate area, especially low or enclosed

places where heavy vapours might collect. Refer to protective measures listed
in sections 7 and 8.
Advice on safe handling : Avoid breathing vapours or mist. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Provide sufficient air exchange and/or exhaust in work rooms. For personal
protection see section 8.
Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors.
Advice on protection : The product is not flammable in air under ambient conditions of temperature
against fire and explosion and pressure. When pressurised with air or oxygen, the mixture may become
flammable. Certain mixtures of HCFCs or HFCs with chlorine may become
flammable or reactive under certain conditions.
Requirements for storage : Do not drag, slide or roll cylinders. Never attempt to lift cylinder by its cap. Use
areas and containers a check valve or trap in the discharge line to prevent hazardous back flow into
the cylinder. Keep at temperature not exceeding 52°C. Keep containers tightly
closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Protect from contamination.
Protect cylinders from damage. Keep away from direct sunlight. Store only in
approved containers.

Protective gloves complying with EN 374. or US OSHA guidelines
:
The choice of an appropriate glove does not only depend on its material but also
on other quality features and is different from one producer to the other. Please
observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which
are provided by the supplier of the gloves. Also take into consideration the
specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of
cuts, abrasion, and the contact time.
Skin and body protection : Wear suitable protective equipment. Wear as appropriate: impervious clothing
Protective measures : Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) is required if a large release occurs.
The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the
concentration and amount of the substance at the specific workplace.
Hygiene measures : Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Respiratory protection : For rescue and maintenance work in storage tanks use self-contained breathing
apparatus. Vapours are heavier than air and can cause suffocation by reducing
oxygen available for breathing. Respiratory protection complying with EN 137.
